Helen Cecelia McIntosh, age 90, passed away January 15, 2017, at Eaton Community Palliative Care in Charlotte, MI. She was born in Bad Axe, MI, January 8, 1927, to Charles and Ida (Booms) Wolschlager on their farm, but was never a “farmer," preferring housekeeping and studies. After graduating high school, Helen left the farm to do office work in Bad Axe and Detroit. She married Lester McIntosh January 18, 1947, and became a full-time mother and homemaker. They lived a short time in Detroit, moving to East Detroit in 1953 and then in 1972 moved to Holt. Helen was a very active member of Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish in Lansing, and a 3rd degree Franciscan. She loved dancing with the love of her life, Lester, any time or place. Helen and her mother, sisters, and daughters sewed many quilts. In later years, as her at home family shrunk, Helen and Lester became prolific Rosary makers, among other church and community activities. Lester passed away November 2, 2008.
